About me
During my clinical career I've had the opportunity to work with a variety of people struggling in many different types of relationships. I've been fortunate to help people improve their relationships with spouses, partners, and children/parents as well as help some of those people find the strength and courage to walk away from unhealthy relationships. In my relationship counseling I make it a top priority for each participant to identify what they see as being the best goals for the relationship. I ensure all members of the relationship feel heard and I have no issues telling an individual if they are being unfair or stepping on boundaries. I make boundaries one of the most important aspects of my relationship counseling. I enjoy helping the members of the relationship identify not only clear, but realistic boundaries and expectations for the relationships. Along with boundaries, safety is just as important in relationships and if a relationship is unsafe to any participant I will do what is required to ensure safety is maintained.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for David West. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
David is great. He listens and provides a neutral atmosphere in which both parties feel they have been heard.
David has helped me navigate through the most difficult time in my life. I am a stronger and more confident human because of his guidance and counseling
I appreciate that he listens and responds fairly and honestly. He doesn’t just take one person’s side. I felt he allowed me to vent without cutting me off and asked quality and thought-provoking questions.
David is very thoughtful and encouraging in his approach. He’s shows great empathy and understanding, which makes me feel I’m not certifiably “crazy.” He helps you dig to realize why you feel and react the way you do, and how to address the situation next time with the proper tools and mindset.
He is knowledgeable and helping us
David is straight forward and really allowed us the room to do the work.
He’s really amazing at what he does.
David does a great job and keeps in touch.
My wife and I have had an extremely positive experience working with Charles. He has given us some great ideas on how to work on our relationship with our kids and each other. The convenience of meeting on-line has been the only way we could have counseling together and Charles is extremely accommodating of our crazy schedule. We would recommend him to anyone that needed someone to talk to.
Very helpful, gives educated recommendations, truly caring.
David has been a huge help during my transition from an abusive relationship. He has given me valuable insight into the ways our minds can work in these trying times, and this has helped me greatly in regaining my emotional footing. Forever grateful.
David is great
David listens and takes in everything that’s being said. He has helped us communicate our feelings better. He is very straight forward when necessary and he’s not afraid to say, “you’re being a bit dramatic.” (Which is very much appreciated.) I would highly recommend David to anyone with counseling needs!
David has been a blessing to my relationship. My fiance and I are destined to be together- as much as I am destined to sabotage it! David has helped us both re-define our communication skills and methods to better identify what the real issues are, underneath all the petty stuff. Highly recommend!
We had a great start. Very positive and accommodating so far. I am a very positive person but we have a lot to learn from him. Looking forward to our future sessions.
He's wonderful. I don't feel like he's ever taking sides or giving one person more attention or an upper hand advantage. He helps you to understand all aspects of communication, not just the ones you and your partner identify with and he's able to move the conversations along without completely steering you in a direction. It's like healthy confrontation without being in a confrontational environment at all.
